(84-85.) (Español aquí) The idea is to incentivize people learn some words in English every day. Learning only five words daily means 1825 words a year. Not enough to speak very well, but it can be a good start. Much better than doing nothing. Do you know somebody who needs to begin to learn English? Some relatives or friends? Please give them this simple lessons.

The common “prepositions” are among the most used words, as you can see on the list of world-english.org. They appear in almost every sentence. But often difficult to translate, it depends on the context, every one has many meanings and use cases. I suppose you need an English teacher to learn grammar.
As I wrote last time, we can’t talk enough about working and earning, most of us have to work to live. Here you are some other basic words.

How to use it?
You find the words always in Spanish and German. The Google link takes you to the Google Translator, where you can set your desired language (above the right side box) to be able to get the meaning in many other languages.
Below the left box, the speaker sign gives you the important pronunciation, the voice sample. Another choice is the other link to the Free Dictionary, with voice samples in both American English and British English versions. The reader should also pronounce the word himself/herself, several times, not only listen to it.
